Via Body and Soul, Paul Krugman nails it as usual:

Polls suggest that a reputation for being tough on terror is just about the only remaining political strength George Bush has. Yet this reputation is based on image, not reality.
. . .
So when the Bush campaign boasts of the president’s record in fighting terrorism and accuses John Kerry of being weak on the issue, when Republican congressmen suggest that a vote for Mr. Kerry is a vote for Osama, remember this: the administration’s actual record is one of indulgence toward regimes that are strongly implicated in terrorism, and of focusing on actual terrorist threats only when forced to by events.

I don’t understand how anyone can still believe the make believe that this administration has made this country safer and is “tough on terror”…such a joke. I don’t have time right now to comment more, but read Krugman’s piece to see the plain and simple articulation of what I wish every American would realize.
